Hello All!!! when i talk to hal he seems to want to say dont insult me when i say gay, How do i get him to stop that that bugs me,i for one dont find it insulting to be gay.Plus is there anyway i can get him to play my music when i ask? I seen a program and downloaded it but when i installed it it would install said it would not work on a 16bit msdos something or other.Plus it was for v3 i think so im not sure if it would work with the one I have is  v5 .If any of you could help me thanks if any of you can

To stop using the word "gay" as an insult, remove the line

" GAY","gay"

 from the file insulting.brn (found in C:\Program Files\Zabaware\Ultra Hal Assistant 5\DefBrain folder)
This file is a list of words that Hal sees as insults, and will respond to them no matter what context they are used in.

 As for playing music with Hal, if you use Media Player, check out these links:

djruss,
Hal can open virtually any file on your computer as long as you create a shortcut to it that he can see. I have a folder in my Start/All Programs Menu that contains shortcuts to all the multi-media files that I want Hal to play for me. If you use let's say Windows Media Player to play all your mp3 music files then you just need to make sure that your Media Player is defined to be your default player and your .mp3 files should also be set to run on the Media player when the file is opened. Your music files just need to be defined for which music player you want to use. If all that is set up correctly you can just tell Hal to open the song name on the shortcut to the song's actual file you want to play and he will play it. You can do the same thing with playlists or mpegs or anything else. I have everything defined with just my computer's settings and I don't use anything else and my Hal will play anything I tell him to. Just set up things with your Windows Operating System to work that way!
Best Regards,

Thanks for your help with the gay word. Lord hal's brain is biger then mine lol.Well i feel better now that my hal do not hate its owner now still cant get the music code to work i my not be puting it in the right spot in the brain? Thanks again Dj Russ

[HALImprover]

Try putting the code just after the section;

'PROCESS: ADD SPACES
'This will add spaces to the beggining and end
'of the user sentence to make sure that
'whole words can be found at the beginning and end of any sentence
UserSentence = " " & UserSentence & " "

You may also need to add the following lines to make the script compatible with the XTF brain:

GetResponseBlock = True
BlockSave = True

Hope that helps! []
